To me that kinda sounds like pump&dump
Elaborate pump and dump is exactly what it is. But right now it doesn't seem that it's even working - all I see now is blabber and no actual pump or at least some action.

Elaborate pump and dump is exactly what it is. But right now it doesn't seem that it's even working - all I see now is blabber and no actual pump or at least some action.
So here we are, moving on to our next goal of setting up the XDN foundation. Our aim here is to give voice to everyone who wants to join the foundation or discussion about its operating issues. We want the foundation to be 100% community based and focused. So the key focus now is on finding volunteers and employees for foundation, and working out a policy on their compensation, responsibilities and terms of work.
At the moment, I see three key positions that we need to fill: head of the foundation, administrator and senior marketing manager.
Whoever wants to apply for those positions please post a link to your CV here or send it to me in a PM.
If you do not want to apply for any of the above positions, but want to be actively involved in developing foundation policy, please shout out.

What are requirements for these positions?
Given the unconventionality of our endeavor, it’s somewhat difficult to develop rigid requirements for the announced positions. However, there are general qualities that, I believe, the candidate has to poses in order to be successful in securing the position at Foundation. Foremost, the candidate should be a proponent of the crypto philosophy with good understanding of the principles of doing business in crypto world. Secondly, he/she has to be passionate about the work he does. And lastly, the successful candidates will have to have exceptional communications skills as they will represent the whole XDN community to the world.
We will consider any CV receive and evaluate them according to the value the person will bring at the position to the community. Bursting passion could compensate for lack of experience.
I terms of specific roles:
Head of the Foundation: We are looking for a successful multi-skilled manager with experience of leading online communities and management of cross-functional teams.
Marketing manager: We are looking for a specialist with around 3 and above years of experience in marketing position with outstanding understanding of SMM, SEM, SEO and PPC.
Administrator: The successful candidate is likely to be a person who can effortlessly schedule ten meetings at different times at various locations a day, while skillfully managing all the document circulation in the office.
So far you seem to be very focused on marketing activities, hiring only administrative and marketing personnel. To me that kinda sounds like pump&dump: blow a huge bubble out of nothing and then burst it for profit. Your intentions might be good, but the image you're casting can be considered bad by some people, including me.
I recommend you start looking for developers and IT people as well, so that you have a capability of producing new, necessary products, which you will then market.

Hah, another foundation - I hope you'll be more productive then the others.
I have some questions:
Where do you get your funding? And where do you plan get money for the foundation in the future? I mean you can't always rely on inner resources and donations.
I have some questions:

Our aim is to make the Foundation a focal point of the community. Any member of the XDN community will be in a position to raise a question that the Foundation will have to address and make the necessary resolution. The community will be the primary beneficiary of the Foundation’s existence and, therefore, we expect the community to support the Foundation financially in the ongoing crowdfunding campaign. The Foundation will work for community and we hope the community will support the foundation with a though, word and action
In this transition period, I will support the foundation with personal finances until the community will see the benefit of the Foundation and start supporting financially.
Are you working on the employment policy in-house? If you are open to suggestions, I have a few:
First of all, I don't think it's possible to define a well-working system right off the bat: there are just too many things factoring in and at least something you make up today is bound to fail to work properly tomorrow.
That being said, I think there are some basic things that can be determined before you even start. First of all, given the anonymous, decentralized nature of XDN, you probably won't be able to, or even should hire full-time, complete-commitment public figures to PR, senior management, or indeed, any other position. By doing so, you will contradict the very idea of the coin, which kinda makes the Foundation pointless.
Instead, I suggest you mostly rely on remote freelance personell with compensation made for achieving certain goals (not for worktime, or, god forbid, a fixed wage), which they define themselves, or the head of the foundation defines for them (each has its pros and cons, so you guys will have to make a judgment call here). You'll have to develop a set of tests to make sure that you hire people that are entirely capable of managing the tasks they are given and are willing to commit their time (which will probably be after their day-jobs) without the monetary compensation being their primary goal.
That way, you'll have a unified group of people working towards achieving a single goal (like your mission statement says), which is at the same time decentralized and, to a certain degree, autonomous, thus following the original philosophy of the XDN's developers.
